Hi!!! I'm basically a movie, food, travel, music, and drama lover all in one...

46 Billion Years of Love




My obsession to Japanese has kicked back in!!! hehhee.... this movie's alternate title is 'Big Bang Love'.... very2 strong... very artistic?? also have lots of confusion on the time setting part... it keeps on going back and forth between past, present and future... but when you're the kind of person that enjoys a good movie, a good art.... this is definitely for you! haha... that's me i guess... the love in this movie was just too strong for anyone to understand, hence the title... i guess what this movie is trying to portray is too much love in that one instant... just that one hug... that hand that wipes away your tears... in that few seconds, billions of love was poured.... for these two characters who is in prison for murder, a love like that seems surreal for them to achieve, but they did far better than just normal romance... they had a LOVE that last, well, billions of years later.... :)

its movies like this that makes me want a love like that too... huh... :P

Cyborg Girl



haha.... i have this sudden spur of obsession to watch japanese movies.... :P

This movie is a bit twisted in terms of time setting... there's 2 different heroins actually, but that part was not explained that well.... i was a bit confused at the ending.... I LOVE Keisuke Koide though.... he's such a cutie... and he can act really2 good too... huhuu :P and oh, the girl plating the cyborg is Haruka Ayase...

watch!!! super funny and touching at the same time... hehehee

Clash Of The Titans



I swore to myself i wouldn't watch this movie, but here i am, writing a review on this very movie... hahaha... funny how fate comes and bites you in the a** right?? :P

Venue: MBO Melaka Mall
Date: last night (4/4/2010)
Time: 10.45pm(screening)

As usual, i was on the way back home... this time it was not from class though (i dont have class on sundays), i was back from watching a chinese orchestra concert at my uni.... it was around 10.30 at the time... i dropped off Arul to her house, and off i went... and like usual, i dont really plan to go watch a movie, my instincst just guided me.... haha...


well, for that a movie that i swore im not gonna watch, it was okay.... the stupid 'zeus' wearing the more stupid shiny suit was still = STUPID.... but the storyline was not that bad... the graphics (aside from that shiny suit) was good... the action was also good... the romance is unsatisfactory though... haha... oh yeah, there's a Queen Cassiopeia?? i remembered my best friend's fan group of DBSK was named that= Cassiopeia... hahhaa... the queen was evil though... but dont worry, she died pretty quick(sorry!! spoiler!) hahah... the rest was okay... not that much sof my time rather than me sitting at home infront of this batbook.... huhuu..

if this kind of movie interests you, go ahead... but other than absolutely accidental, i dont advice the others to watch this one.. :P i know, im soo evil right? :)

p.s- other than this movie, there was only 'how to train your dragon'... and like posted here a few days ago, i already watched that....

Someday- Rob Thomas


You can go
You can start all over again
You can try to find a way to make another day go by
You can hide
Hold all your feelings inside
You can try to carry on when all you want to do is cry

[Chorus]
And maybe someday
We'll figure all this out
Try to put an end to all our doubt
Try to find a way to make things better now and
Maybe someday we'll live our lives out loud
We'll be better off somehow
Someday

Now wait
And try to find another mistake
If you throw it all away then maybe you can change your mind
You can run, oh
And when everything is over and done
You can shine a little light on everything around you
Man it's good to be so warm

[Chorus]

And I don't want to wait
I just want to know
I just want to hear you tell me so
Give it to me straight
Tell it to me slow

Cause maybe someday
We'll figure all this out
We'll put an end to all our doubt
Try to find a way to just feel better now and
Maybe someday we'll live our lives out loud
We'll be better off somehow
Someday

[x2]
Cause sometimes we don't really notice
Just how good it can get
So maybe we should start all over
Start all over again






another one of those that can't stop haunting me... making me run in circles just to find it, and now its stuck! haha :P

How To Train Your Dragon



Venue: MBO Melaka Mall
Date: 31/03/2010
Company: ~Arul~

After class finish at 5pm, I went with Arul to Melaka Mall in hopes of catching a good movie before 8.30pm where i have an event that night. We were in luck as 'How To Train Your Dragon' was right on time with our schedule, or mora like, right on time with our arrival!! Lucky! It turns out that Arul didn't know that the movie was an animation! haha...

But it was enjoyable, and even a little surprising, in a good way! :D

even after watching the trailer lots of times, the movie still manages to surprise me! Not just for kids... its super fun for all, even those who doesn't like animations usually, like Arul... :P

Laughed a lot! Fun3x... definitely watch it!!!! hehehhe... :P

The Lovely Bones



Venue: MBO Melaka Mall
Date: 18th March 2010

Company: none

Right after my maths test, I was a bit down, but not that tired. I didn't know what to do, so as usual, I went to the cinema= the only place that can surely cheer me up... and as usual, I just went to the cinema with an empty mind... no plan of what to watch or even where to watch (i just let my hands take the wheels.. yes, it swerved left at the last moment..) I parked, went straight into MBO, went to the counter, and start planning there... what movies have i not watched?? what time would be suitable?? to buy popcorn or not?? hahaaa...

Anyways, like stated above, this time the lucky winner is THE LOVELY BONES that's directed by Peter Jackson (i didn't know he could direct such a movie.. you know, NOT Lord Of The Rings material..) I had really wanted to watch it from a long time ago, and the timing was such a perfect fit that I didn't even consider anything else... bought the tickets, popcorns and mineral water (i'm on a diet? :P) and off into hall 5... i was in just on time when the movie started...

I must say, the movie does feel a bit dragging as its almost 2 hours... as the time frame of the movie is around 2 years(?).... It was enjoyable though (in a sense when ur alone and eating popcorn)... A very thoughtful movie... very deep... very complicated.. a bit weird and quirky at times.. the scenes inside the "in betweens" was beautiful, colorful, and very vivid... you don't even need 3D to feel the effect...

Although the ending was tragic... like you would know from the beginning anyway.. (this is NOT a spoiler)... I enjoyed it thoroughly... ALONE... i just felt that this kind of movie is exactly the ones you shouldn't be watching with someone else, namely a blunt, frank or even annoying person that talks all the time.. hahaa... ( i shueesh these people talking at the back at the most crucial time to have the environment quiet!!!!!).. anyways, you can always talk/discuss about it after the movie... right?

Thumbs up to Peter Jackson and all that worked hard to make this movie a success... i certainly enjoyed it, and would be looking forward to more movies in this genre.... or maybe more Peter Jackson movie that is mellow and drama than action and fantasy..? :P

Go watch!!!

The Book Of Eli



Watched on 4th of march?? I can't even remember already... huhuu

venue: GSC Dataran Pahlawan

Came in a bit late... by the time i'm in the cinema, Eli was scrubbing his body (taking a bath?) haha.. anyway, this was also a coincidence movie.... i didn't plan to go see it at all... me and a friend just choose one that almost starts, and we both haven't watched yet...

It was a very good movie through my point of view... the cinematography was stunning... the story was solid, although i must say i find it a bit amusing and stupid! haha..

The actors was of course brilliant.. Denzel didn't look that old.. and his acting was superb, like always... the girl playing a role close to his was also not bad... Mila Kunis portrays what needed to be... and plus, her eyes are crazy beautiful... haha... Gary Oldman was also excellent... the ending was kind of surprising in a way... talking bout surprises, there's quit a lot in the movie... enough to get you excited and engaged to the screen... definitely not boring at all...

The action part was at times surreal... and it certainly brings the X-factor to this movie...

Go watch!!! guys, just don't bring your dates to this one... unless you want them to be clinging to you during the gore scenes.... :P

Life after you- Daughtry



Ten miles from town and I just broke down
Spittin' out smoke on the side of the road
I'm out here alone just tryin' to get home
To tell you I was wrong but you already know
Believe me I won't stop at nothin'
To see you so I've started runnin'

All that I'm after is a life full of laughter
As long as I'm laughing with you
I'm thinkin' that all that still matters is love ever after
After the life we've been through
'Cause I know there's no life after you

Last time we talked, the night that I walked
Burns like an iron in the back of my mind
I must've been high to say you and I
Weren't meant to be and just wasting my time
Oh, why did I ever doubt you?
You know I would die here without you

All that I'm after is a life full of laughter
As long as I'm laughing with you
I'm thinkin' that all that still matters is love ever after
After the life we've been through
'Cause I know there's no life after you

You and I, right or wrong, there's no other one
After this time I spent alone
It's hard to believe that a man with sight could be so blind
Thinkin' 'bout the better times, must've been outta my mind
So I'm runnin' back to tell you

All that I'm after is a life full of laughter
Without you God knows what I'd do

All that I'm after is a life full of laughter
As long as I'm laughing with you
I'm thinkin' that all that still matters is love ever after
After the life we've been through
'Cause I know there's no life after you


The song that's currently buzzing in my head over and over again...

Alice in Wonderland, 3D






I watched Alice in Wonderland 3D on the 8th of March with a friend...

venue : GSC Dataran Pahlawan

Since at GSC Dataran Pahlawan was the ONLY place in Malacca to have this movie in 3D, I don't have much of a choice now, do I??

I conclude the movie to be quite dissapointing, aside from the performance of MY favorite, sexy actor, Johnny Depp (yes, this could be not true.. haha)...

The 3D was not that obvious, even in the crucial fighting scenes... the storyline was a bit confusing in the beginning, turns boring and repetitive from the original to the middle of the movie, then it changes a bit, but not much excitement there on the new storyline...

It was a bit bland, and safe... with a cast of talented actors, this is definitely not what i expected at all from the movie... especially when Tim Burton is the director!!

oh, and i thought that Anne Hathaway was unsuitable, the lead actress a.k.a Alice, played by Mia Wasikowska (her name IS weird right??) was not convincing as Alice, but I think she is a fine actress that is going to be seen more and more from now...

Through all the dissapointments, I did enjoy watching this 3D movie, especially with someone beside me to share the experience with later... Go watch it once, in 3D is what I would suggest... a non-3D version might not be as enjoyable....u might regret not watching it at all.... there's Johnny Depp in it after all.. :P

Solomon Kane


Solomon Kane Picture

venue: MBO Melaka Mall
date: today

This was totally an impulse decision to go watch any movie at all, and turns out the only one available at the time and i haven't watched yet was Solomon Kane....

I had absolutely and totally no idea at all of what the movie was about... I haven't watched the trailer, nor have i read the synopsis...

It's a movie that would make you cringe... it's a movie that would make you fear... and would make you hope...

Although there's a hint of romance in the storyline, it was not pursued, hanged at the ending... and the romance was not clear... its a bit blurry on the subject of whether the characters involved are actually in love or not...

It's like in Lord of the Ring's fighting scenes.... only this time, its almost the whole movie... there's devils, witches, evil people, kings, innocent girl, nice family, priests, the church, and Solomon Kane of course....

To be honest, when the movie started, for like 5 minutes into the movie, i was not convinced that the main character is actually the hero of this movie... i even went as hated the idea and screenwriter if he really was the hero...

It does develop quite slow in the beginning... but it gets to a nice pace towards the end...

Since i watched it alone, there's no talking and questions asked in the middle of the movie, nor was there any glances while making weird faces... hahha... even the hall being almost empty didn't make any difference in the environment... there was still noises from popcorn eating (me & ??) little whispers during *those* parts, and handphone going off... the best part though, was that i had a WHOLE row all to myself, my feet was propped up nicely on the seat in front, and my handbag on the seat beside....

:P

all in: good for boys who like gore, cruel killings... demons (no angels here!)... a good watch... not a must watch, but still... go see it if you like action packed movies... its not a let down, even if you come in not knowing a thing about it... oh, and one more... the main actor is kinda unknown (to me atleast)...
